Abstract

Chitosan-based nanofibers (CS-NFs) are excellent artificial extracellular matrices (ECMs) due to the resemblance of CS with the glycosaminoglycans of the natural ECMs. Despite this excellent feature, the poor electrospinnability and mechanical properties of CS are responsible for important limitations in respect to its biomedical applications. To improve the CS's physico-chemical properties, new bioactive and biomimetic CS-NFs were formulated with polyethylene oxide (PEO), having incorporated different active components (ACs) with important beneficial effects for healing. Manuka honey (trophic and antimicrobial effects), propolis (antimicrobial effects), Calendula officinalis infusion (antioxidant effect, reepithelialization stimulating agent), insulin (trophic effect), and L-arginine (angiogenic effect) were selected as ACs. SEM morphology analysis revealed well-alignment, unidirectional arrays, with small diameters, no beads, and smooth surfaces for developed CS_PEO-ACs NFs. The developed NFs showed good biodegradability (NFs mats lost up to 60% of their initial weight in PBS), increased hemocompatibility (hemolytic index less than 4%), and a reduced cytotoxicity degree (cell viability degree more than 90%). In addition, significant antioxidant and antimicrobial effects were noted for the developed NFs which make them suitable for chronic wounds, due to the role of oxidative stress and infection risk in delaying normal wound healing. The most suitable for wound healing applications seems to be CS_PEO@P_C which showed an improved hemolysis index (2.92 ± 0.16%), is non-toxic (cell viability degree more than 97%), and has also significant radical scavenging effect (DPPH inhibition more than 65%). In addition, CS_PEO@P_C presents increased antimicrobial effects, more noticeably for Staphylococcus aureus strain, which is a key feature in preventing wound infection and delaying the healing process. It can be concluded that the developed CS/PEO-ACs NFs are very promising biomaterials for wound care, especially CS_PEO@P_C., (Copyright © 2021. Published by Elsevier B.V.)

Abstract

Immobilization of antibody molecules onto hydrophobic polymeric surfaces with disordered orientation is something unwanted in many applications. To overcome this drawback, controlled immunoglobulin G (IgG) immobilization onto poly(vinylidene fluoride) surface was investigated in this paper. A two-step process involving radiofrequency plasma pretreatment for polymer surface functionalization, followed by coupling reaction was developed, after which immunoglobulin G was immobilized onto the surface directly or via protein-A. IR and XPS data proved that the process is more efficient when the radiofrequency plasma pretreatment was performed using N2 and N2/H2 as discharge gases. NIR-CI, AFM and XPS surface evaluation revealed that immobilization of IgG onto N2/H2 plasma-treated PVDF via grafted protein-A was achieved with an ends-on orientation, leaving available the antigen binding sites of IgG. This procedure could be a promising route for the preparation of oriented IgG assembly onto PVDF, useful in biomedical, membranes or sensors applications. QCM results showed a better antibody-antigen interaction when IgG immobilization onto PVDF substrate is mediated by protein A., (Copyright © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.)
